Utah Tobacco Laws

According to the Salt Lake Tribune, Utah is taking a year to decide what the laws regarding e-cigarettes will be. Sales are banned to minors but many are concerned about the marketing of these products. Especially when liquid flavors come in Pina Colada and Captain Crunch. If underage sales are found, it's the person selling them who gets charged rather than the retailer who is licensed. Here are laws pertaining to tobacco products which may some day include e-cigarettes:

The Law

Utah smoking law states that it is unlawful for any person under the age of 18 to purchase, attempt to purchase, possesses, or accept any cigarette, cigar, electronic cigarette, or tobacco product. It is also unlawful for said minor to falsify his or her age to acquire tobacco or tobacco products.
UTAH CODE ANN. § 76-10-105 & §§ 53-3-229(3)(c) & 53-3-810(3)(c)
